Has anyone tried this new spot in the Airport Plaza near TJ Maxx? It is advertised as Brazilian and American food.

[flaesantos]

Yes, it's a very good restaurant. They server American and Brazilian food and breakfast is serverd all day. The service is great !!! Highly recommended.
You should try the Preta X-Burger....it is to die for !!!

[phelana]

Are there any non meat items? Fish? Seafood?

[flaesantos]

yes, try the Shrimp bobo or the Fish muqueca, everyone that tried them said it was delicious...

[CapeCodGuy]

Funny, a burger is one of the last thing I'd think to order at a Brazilian cafe. What makes it "to die for"?

[phelana]

CCG, what WOULD you order at a Brazilian Cafe?? Do tell...
:)

[CapeCodGuy]

I guess Feijoada would be my first choice if it's on the menu. It's a stew with black beans and many different smoked and sun-dried meats, especially pork, and smoked sausages. It is usually served with several traditional side dishes, including orange slices, shredded kale, rice, cassava meal browned in butter and a hot pepper and lemon sauce. Second choice would be Pasteis Fritos, which are like Brazilian empanadas filled with chicken,beef, fish, or cheeses. But a burger? Nah!!

[phelana]

typically is Brazilian fare mostly meats? I would love to stop by if they have fish or seafood...Flaesantos??

[CapeCodGuy]

Although meats are usually prominent on Bz menues, fish sould be plentiful as well. What is Flaesantos?
